The story
The Clerget family has been established in Burgundy for centuries; the official website traces its roots back to 1268 and a family succession spanning more than twenty generations. In recent years Thibaud Clerget has taken the reins of the estate and initiated a production and commercial revitalization. Some publications also report the acquisition of additional vineyards in 2022, increasing the holdings reported by specialist distributors.
Production philosophy
A respectful approach to the land and traditional practices combined with controlled experimentation: fermentations with indigenous yeasts, careful vineyard work and techniques designed to preserve the expression of individual terroirs rather than standardize the style.
Terroir and vineyards
Located in the heart of the Côte de Beaune, with vineyards and production ties to Volnay, Pommard and parcels in Meursault, the estate cultivates several Premier Crus in Volnay and also owns notable parcels such as the Clos de Vougeot, mentioned in commercial descriptions.
